US Education Department Joins Forces with NASA

NASA and the US Department of Education have joined forces to promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) education through after-school programmes across the United States. This initiative is set to impact approximately 1,000 students in over 60 cities across 10 states.

The collaboration officially launched on September 23 at the Wheatley Education Campus in Washington, DC, where students were introduced to the programme by Kris Brown, NASA’s Deputy Assistant Administrator for STEM Engagement, and Cindy Marten, Deputy Secretary of the US Department of Education.

“This partnership is unlocking endless opportunities for students to explore, innovate, and excel in STEM fields,” said Cindy Marten. NASA’s Glenn Research Centre in Cleveland will play a crucial role by providing content, hands-on projects, staff training, and opportunities for students to connect with NASA scientists and engineers. Through design challenges, students will apply critical thinking and problem-solving skills to address real-world challenges faced by NASA professionals.

NASA Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy emphasised the agency’s commitment to after-school programmes, saying, “We aim to engage students in the excitement of NASA’s work. Investments like these are designed to spark curiosity, foster potential, and inspire the future generation of researchers, explorers, and innovators.”
